A Week of Things

Let me first start off by saying that I am fully aware I never did my “what’s in my pantry/fridge” post. Why? Because when I went to take the video, I realized my phone is a piece of crap, and I do not have a working camera. So.. that’s that.

I’ll figure out a way to do videos, or just do pictures. Either way, pantry post still to come.

Moving on, this week marked the end of my Community rotation in my internship, which meant it was suppose to be my last week at the eating disorder recovery center. BUT, for this next part, Advanced Nutrition, which is a total of 7 weeks, I was allowed to pick an “elective”. I asked if I could stay at the ED center for the elective weeks, and my instructor ok’d everything last week. So I’ll be staying for two more weeks, and then going back in July for another two weeks.

Up until this week, I hadn’t actually been counseling the existing patients one-on-one, but I did do a lot of the group sessions and new patient sessions. One of the dietitians on staff will be traveling for work over the next two weeks though, so I spent a lot of time in the sessions with her and her patients this week, getting to know them and their story from front to back. Next week, I’ll essentially be filling in for her by seeing her patients, going to rounds for updates, and doing all of the group sessions she normally does. I’m nervous to kind of fill her shoes for couple weeks because she’s awesome with the patients, but she’s a young dietitian so I’ve been learning a lot from her and I feel like I can relate well to her philosophies on everything.

Aside from having a full week with the internship-grind, this week Andrew and I celebrated our 4 year anniversary. It’s actually a psuedo-anniversary date because we don’t know for sure when we started dating, so we never make a big deal about it. Just deserves an honorable mention!

It was also the week we decided as Annie-girl’s birthday… little pup is now two years old!

Anddd this week I started getting up earlier and working out in the morning. I also tried a new protein powder.. but more on all of that later ;)
